A Liberal Mistake.

The more we think the matter over,
the more inclined we are to cry "shake'
to the Liberal statesmen who planned
the recent attack upon the school
trusteeships. They did not, we believe,
gain co ntrol of a single district, and
therefore reaped advantages which
would be apparent only when. a year
from now, they catch the people again
mapping, and secure a majority if
the trusteeships in each district. But
will they be permitted to do this? In
the meantime they have taught the
Peoples party lesson that events will
show the latter knows how to profit by.
They have emphasized the fact that if
the substantial advantages of returning
candidates to the Legislature are TO be
reaped, care must be taken to poll the
entire vote of the Peoples party. To
LAY low" is often winning scheme of
politics, but the scheme should not
spring at butterflies when game is in
sight. You have won a half dozen
offices of small present importance, at
the sacrifice of larger game.

A DELIGHTFUL DASH.
An Expensive Runaway for Two
Binghamites.

Yesterday morning, couple of men
from Bingham hired horse and buggy
from Grant Bros, and drove out to the
Warm Springs. On their return they
visited some friends who live in the
thoroughfare known as Hyde's Alley.
In driving out of the alleywaY very
short turn was made, and Que of the
buggy wheels was left lying in the ditch,
and sprawled beside it were the two
men. The horse became thoroughly
frightened, and was evidently making
for Theatre Hill and thence to City
Greek Canyon when it was frightened
out of its line of travel by man throw
ing up his hands. This action turned
the fiery steed and the damaged buggy
along the sidewalk. The vehicle struck,
with full force, Tom Patterns fine
assortment of fruits and vegetables
with which he adorns a portion of the
sidewalk, and Immediately following
the collision, the air was full of the
products of the field and orchard. The
buggy of Arthur Day was in the track
of the runaway, and was damaged to
the extent of SO or $40. When Paul's
meat market was reached the runaway
turned and headed straight for the
stable at the foot of the street, arriving
there with couple of wheels and other
badly damaged portions of the wreck.
The animal escaped with a few slight
scratches. The damages are placed at
$500,

SOUND, RINGING SENSE.
An Advocate of Home Industry
to the Front.
To the Editor of THE HERALD.

To the Editor of THE HERALD.
Several articles have appeared lately
in your local papers relative to home
manufactures, their necessity, en-
couragement. support, etc., which is
certainly step in the right direction
a subject worthy of consideration-one,
if acted on intelligently by the COM
munity as whole, will lead US ~ to
commercial Importance, make for us a
great city and prosperous people. But
how many of US understand the i'm
portance and realize fully that in
order to achieve success in this
direction that each individual has
work to do; but more especially
heads of families, in laying up supplies
for the day, week or month, should con-
slider that money paid for any home
production helps to support our neigh
Dor, enables him to extend his factory
and give employment to other families,
who, in turn, distribute the money,
which in various ways comes back
again, having performed a mission OF
good, whereby we all are mutually ben
eltted; but, instead of doing this,
are we not rather inclined to
look upon home productions as
something hardly deserving even
our attention? Is there not a
feeling existing that homemade goods
are inferior or of a rougher and cheaper
grade as compared with the imported?
There is ground for believing that this
feeling exists to some extent; also, that
there is cause for it, which, if it does
not exist now, has existed. The prin-
cipal cause appears to be the result of
bolsterlng in the past home production
too much at the expense of the con-
sumner. This should not be. There is
no good reason why our home manu-
facturers, in most cases, should not be
able to put on the market goods of equal
merit-both in quality and appearance
to any imported, and at this
period of our development it should be
understood that nothing less will be &C
cepted by the community. This full
filed on the part of the manufacturers,
certainly they are entitled to almost ex.
elusive patronage at the hands of all
our citizens, to the support and in
fuence of our dealers, who should be
interested in putting forward such pro-
ductions in preference to any imported,
or at least see that they are brought in
fair competition, and we as consumers,
must wake up and not continue blind to
our own interests. In failing to support
our home industries we are injuring
ourselves by retarding the growth of
our city and building up foreign COM
munitles at our own expense. Let this
subject be sufficiently agitated to enlist
the support of all of our citizens, and it
will not be long before our present
industries will be extended, new ones
formed, and our present quiet city
transformed to manufacturing
metropolis where nature has done most
everv thing but putting the wheels in
motion. ADVOCATE.

CITY CREEK CANYON.
lis Advantages as a Resort During
the Heated Term.

Each year as the heated term has ap-
preached, several of our well known
citizens. wisely concluding that it was
sheer folly to make a pilgrimage OF
fifty or seventy-fve miles in order to
find camping out" place for few
weeks, have moved their families few
miles up City Greek Canyon, where all
the numerous advantages supposed to
come from a short residence in the
country, among the breezes from the
pines and the pure air and water, are
as readily obtainable and equally as
beneficial as though one had travelled a
! hundred miles. To those only who
Canyon are its many beauties and ad-
vantages known, but these few are
united in the belief that if the
| canyon were not so easy OF access,
it would be thronged with campers
during the entire summer-the same as
Weber is now. One need not go more
than seven or eight miles to find suit
able camping place, where the shade is
abundant, the water cold and pure, and
the scenery all that could be desired.
Here, within en hours ride of Main
Street, one is as far removed from the
busy world so far as appearances and
surroundings go, as though a hundred
or thousand miles had been Travelled
to secure the desired boon. The days
are warm, it is true, unless one keeps in
the shade-and that is easily dOne-but
the nights are cool, bracing and invigor-
ating. The lost appetite soon returns
to the sufferer, and experiments have
proven the great pecially
to children-a residence of few weeks
in the canyon possesses. The retreat is
so close to the city that the business
man finds it no trouble to go up in the
evening, spend the night at the camp,
and return to the Office in the morning,
refreshed and invigorated by the nights
out. Supplies of any kind the city af-
fords can readily be furnished, and in
case of sickness or accident occurring,
help can be summoned very quickly.
Within distance of three miles-com-
mencing at about the fifth mile up the
canyon-there are a hundred pleasant
spots each large enough for the use of
two or three families.
The difficulty to be encountered at
present, however, is the road, which,
owing to long neglect, is not in as good
condition as could be desired, ana in
which it could be placed with an out.
lay of few dollars.
1t is well-known that Morgan County
offered to join with this city or county
in the construction of a good road
through the canyon. but the project
seems to have fallen through, for want
of enterprise on our part-not from
willingness on the part of our country
friends.
About FIVE miles up the canyon, and
on the south side of the creek, in as
spot as can be found in
this section, Messrs. Will Calder, Dave
Calder, and Martin Schmidt have
located their families, making up quite
a little colony, and IN numerous other
places can be seen the smoke of camp
fires, and the contrast of white tents
amid the dark green foliage.

ANOTHER FAMOUS FIGHT.
The Mcdonald Sylvester Hippo
drOme at Butte City.

Shortly after 10 o'clock the combat
ants came on the stage. They had a
set of two-ounce gloves, but some of the
officers were there and refused to allow
them to be used, and set of six-ounce
gloves were produced and donned BY
the combatants. They were loudly
cheered when they came on, but the
applause gradually withered away as
the mock battle progressed 1t lasted
two rounds and half, and in the mid
die of the third Sylvester remained
PROSTATE on the floor until declared
knocked out. The contest was fareical
in the extreme. Mcdonald did not re-
ceive a single blow in the fight, and
every time he felt for Sylvester that
gentleman assumed reclining position,
without reference to the weight of the
blow. He bore no marks of punish
ment away from the fight, and the
general verdict of the audience was that
the fight was merely hippodrome.
The audience set up derisiye roar
lam Harris, who had been selected as
referee. a number went to the box Of
fee to make raid on the gate receipts,
but owing to the serving of an attach
ment the cash was all gone. The disap-
pointed gang then went out and re
turned in 8 few moments about Efty
strong, armed with ripe eggs, which
they had procured in a neighboring
grocery. Sylvester was still in the
dressing room, and the boys quietly
waited for him at the door. Dick rhier-
man did not want any trouble in the
hall, so he came in and turned off the
lights. Mr.. Sylvester made his exit
from the back entrance and thus es-
capped some testimonials Of the esteem
in which he was held by some of the de-
luded.
Duncan Mcdonald was seen after the
exhibition, and said he was disguised
with the whole business, and said he
would not appear in the ring again. He
said he was not making any promises,
and had not made any in Salt Lake as
stated, but he intended to quit the bust
ness for good.
Duncan would have had more friends
in Butte if he had put this resolution
into effect before going into the ring last
nigh .-lrter-Dountdtn.
